PLEASE READ: FIREWORKS 🎇 🧨🎆🥺🫣😮‍💨

Time to do a little refresher course on desensitizing the dogs. Play some fireworks sound tracks from YouTube.

Start off lower volume, every bang or bright flash (if thunderstorms are also an issue) give a high value treat. Do this softly for two days, up the volume, same steps, bang/flash = treat. Two days. Then loud for two days, same treat after/during.

Don't tell them good girl or boy if they're scared as they'll think you are saying good, stay scared, that's what I want. Dogs understand tone. Be calm and supportive without sheltering them from the trigger.

PLEASE DON'T LET THEM OUTSIDE WITHOUT A LEASH THAT YOU ARE ATTACHED TO.

Dreamcatcher's Who Gives A Hoot Snowy "Zoey"

Zoey earned her Intermediate Title in Rally this weekend. She finished today with a 99/100 and 1st place!!
Pam and Zoey have been working so hard. They take multiple classes per week and Pam says she's so much fun to train. They are a fabulous team and they are going places.
It's so nice to have a "puppy" close by. In a few weeks they'll be competing in Tea Cup Agility, again at our club. I plan to watch in person then!
I'm so proud of their hard work and dedication to showcasing Zoey's accomplishments.
Congratulations to you both. 💖🐾🐾🦉

Happy Mother’s Day to the women who somehow:
know where everything is.

How they survive on cold coffee, answer questions nobody else can answer, and still keep the whole world moving forward.

Honestly, moms deserve a trophy, and at minimum, one uninterrupted bathroom trip today!!

I got permission to post this picture.
This is one of the puppies I raised that went to a couple without children.
A year or so later this child was born and became instant best friends with the puppy. They have been inseparable from the beginning.
Best friends sharing a moment to look out the window at something that caught their eyes!
There just isn't anything cuter than this!! 💗

I am SO proud of both John and Ringo for their hard work and dedication to the sport.
John if you'll add his other titles that would be great. They have been busy in several different sports and very accomplished already in their time together. They are on to more fun adventures! 🎼🎵❤️🎵🎼
